Book the Pendry Chicago with VIP Benefits

Steeped in history and anchored in unmistakable style, Pendry Chicago stands as one of the city's most remarkable luxury hotels. Set within the iconic 1929 Art Deco Carbide & Carbon Building in the heart of Chicago's Loop neighborhood, the hotel embodies the meeting point between yesterday and today. With contemporary interiors, thoughtful culinary concepts, refined gathering spaces, and a vibrant sense of place, Pendry Chicago invites travelers to discover their new favorite spot in the city.

A Landmark Reborn

The Carbide & Carbon Building has long been one of Chicago's most admired architectural achievements. Rising 37 stories above Michigan Avenue, it is a celebrated example of Art Deco design. The Burnham Brothers, sons of the legendary architect Daniel Burnham, designed the building as the regional headquarters for Union Carbide and Carbon Co. Its distinct form and shimmering green façade, accented with gold leaf details, earned the building a reputation as resembling a champagne bottle—an intentional symbol of optimism during the Prohibition era.

Over the decades, the building became a beloved Chicago landmark, eventually receiving official landmark designation in 1996. Its polished black granite base, bronze trim, and dark green terra cotta tower remain among the most recognizable structures on the skyline. Pendry Chicago honors the heritage of this extraordinary building by weaving its history into a fresh, modern interpretation of luxury hospitality. Newly designed interiors subtly echo the building's Art Deco roots while incorporating contemporary materials, warm textures, and a welcoming atmosphere that feels both classic and current.

The guest rooms blend sophistication with practicality, offering thoughtful touches that enhance every stay.
